We had to put a blurb and release date on our web site...
No biggie...
Hmmm, must take it down soon... Hehe
We have not completed the project, yet.  Its been going 2 years.
Not sure what will happen when the next review comes up but I don't want
to
Have to buy 5 x MSDN's @ retail that's 4 sure.  (20K here vs $800)

I got an email from MS about 6 months ago, then a follow up saying the
email was sent in error.
The 1st email was approving another 12 month extension for some
company....  Hehe
I don't think they want to make it too hard, maybe they will crackdown
sometime in the future! 

cheers

...basically just tell them via e or phone ...if you're not obviously a
crook, they're just trying to fill their check boxes.
